Freud 30-103 5/16" Radius Cove Bit is a carbide-tipped core-box router bit engineered to create clean, sculpted edges with ease. The 5/16" radius delivers a timeless cove profile that enhances furniture, cabinetry, and decorative trim with a soft, architectural feel.

What makes this bit stand out is Freud’s thoughtful geometry. The shear angle slices wood similarly to a hand plane, reducing tear-out and splintering, even in materials with figured grain. That means you get consistent, smoothie edges on tricky surfaces without compromising speed or accuracy.

• Classic 5/16" radius creates a smooth, concave edge that’s ideal for cabinet trim, picture frames, and decorative edging.
• Core-box profile delivers the distinctive Cove shape you see in traditional woodworking, from edge detailing to sign-making accents.

• Material versatility designed to work in hard and soft woods, plywood, and composites, making it a go-to choice for a wide range of projects.
